Hey what's up heres my question I wanna know your opinion I've looked at lots of other threads but I want opinions for cams for my build
And guys with similar builds what number are you making and 1/4 mile time
Thanks in advance guys



The Build
2.0L B20B
Polished crankshaft
Weisco 11.8:1 pistons eagle rods
Stock sleeves
B16 head with with itr exhaust can and b17 intake cam
Port n polish
1mm oversized valves
Titanium springs and retainers
440cc injectors
B16 intake manifold and tb
Tuned on Crome
Dc.header back exhaust punched cat

I have a guy on kijiji with a set of buddy club stage 4 cams he wants to trade cams

 

Running those oversized valves will possibly hinder what you are going to be able to do with cams that have close v2v measurement to begin with. What springs and retainers? what is the "advertised" seat pressure of them? <--- will help determine how big of a cam you can go.

the number is NOT important. the peak power means jack and does not tell you anything of the engine other than some dyno said it makes X peak power.

If you read the other threads then obiviously you saw dyno graphs with the different setups. With that being said, what did you see ON THE GRAPH that was different between them all? How far was torque carried? Did power drop off hard after peak torque? How did their induction and exhaust setups differ from yours? What times did they run? what was their mph?

I think in the future this is the only way I am going to allow these threads. Its obvious you just want to be given information without even understanding why and im sorry but all that breeds is ignorance and petty arguments between ignorant members and you and everyone else reading are not going to learn anything from a cat fight of members throwing about brand names.

So spend some time in the dyno threads and the threads you already looked through and reply back with answers to them.

 

ditch the dc.

Not sure what Springs and retainer I bought the car a month ago
And yea I'm looking for Info that's what these forums are for to help each other out am I wrong I appreciate your advice still as ur probably right on the v2v clearance issue right now motor runs perfect no valve ticks I'll most Likely be pulling it apart to what's exactly in the motor no need to be a dick tho

As for the header I was considering getting rid of and getting something better any ideas

Thanks guys

 

I was considering the skunk 2 pro 2s
With skunk springs and retainers since I'm unsure on what specs mine are

 

I would be sure to upgrade to the proper valvetrain first and formost. Secondly, the DC head is gonna choke the motor hugely. Look into something better.

Determine your budget, and goals.
From there we can recommend camshafts, I have tuned quite a few setups with the pro2's, they leave alot of room to grow, the CR of your motor is fine for a pro2 type style cam.

 

That is a damn good answer
What header u guys think I should get
As for the cams I'm gonna go with the skunk 2 stages cams
With there springs and retainers
Thank you DDTECH

 

Not trying to be a dick although many people see me as coming off that way. I just want people to learn and not be "told" information which is easily accessible and has been dicussed over and over. All the answers you could ever need for a basic street car build can be found in the faq, but it requires truly understanding how engines work, how to read a dyno graph for meaning and using that information to compile a build that will suit your goals.

Over the years, it just gets worse and worse and without forcing people to research first, and not for just 30 min then give up and make a thread. I mean really, you are putting a lot of money into your engine. Dont you want to truly understand why you are picking certain parts? That doesnt come from asking what header to run or what cams to run.

Unfortunately a lot of new people arent going to like me. But the ones who listen to me and do more than scour internet forums for information passed along from one person to another (you played telephone in school right?), they will be better for it because they worked hard to understand.

Sorry for the rant. I typically close these threads.

 

OP i sent you a message.

 

I get what your saying and all and I don't mean to be rude either
But I'm not a complete newb
I'm 28 and I've done all my own work on my cars
91 civic b16
92 gsr
93 Toyota supra
A4 1.8t
I've built a few motor befor with no problems I was just looking to get some advice as I've never fully built a street race motor befor
And yea I take info but then I do this crazy thing called reading and understanding
Thanks to everybody body else for your help

 

I would ask my friend Rocket to ship m24xx intake and m22xx exhaust.
Get RDX or ID injectors and an ITR style IM (or the Skunk2UltraStreet), also save for a bit better header...

OP, you're gonna need a lot of "hand holding", since you don't have enough knowledge to even know who you should listen too.

Who is building the motor?
